"A st. Louis type founder has discov-
cred q fact which he seems to s'view with
alarm to a certain extent. Here we
are he says, ION the eve of 1888, which
creates q triple demand for the figure
eight. This triple use of figures in the
annals Of time will not occur again until
1911, 1885, 1000, 2o22, gill, 2122, 22o3,
22l1, 1922, etc" It must be d matter Of
conggrratulation to the type founders that
the extraordinary demands for special
figures, as in the ease Of 1888, do not
come upon them with great and over
powering suddenness. They would seem
to have. an abundance of time, for in
stance, TO prepare for the unprecedented
tax upon their machinery by the time
the year 1922 comes round.

There are blacksmiths and blacksmiths.
Some making their living by shoeing
horses, and others take contracts to make
drop-hammers for the French Govern
ment. A firm of Brooklyn blacksmiths
is working its factory night and day on
n of these contracts, given out last fall
by one of General Boulanger's agents.
This firm has supplied drop-hammers to
France, Germany, Spain and Turkey,
and has had so many orders from foreign
governments that it has scarcely time to
do business with common people. Drop
hammers are used in concentrating, and
the Brooklyn firms work told in the
Franco-Gcrman and Turco-Russian war.

peace, there is no reason why its manu-
facturers shouldn't make a ready profit

Brain Weights.

The average weight of the brain in men
is forty-seven ounces, and in women some
four or five ounces less; the human organ
being absolutely heavier than that Of any
OF the lower animals except the elephant
and the whale, with brains of tenand FIVE
pounds respectfully. AS rule, mental
capacity and the size of the brain quite
closely correspond; and il has been OBJ
served that d brain weight of less than
~thirty-tWo ounce In an adultperson is al
ways accompanied BY d defective intel
leet. The rule has its exceptions, how
ever, o notable one being thatof Gambet-
ia, the small weight OF whose brain. less
than forty-four ounces, IS attracting the
attention Of French anthropologists. "a
contrasting case has recently been fur
nished in an idiot with q brain Of fifty-
five unces. Familiar great brains are
those Of Guvier and Webster, each ex-
ceeding sixty-four ounces; of Dr.. Aber-
cronbie, sixty-three ounces and of Duy-
preten, sixty4hree and one-half ounces.
Descarfes, Raphael and Voltaire had
small heads, while that of Napoleon was
only slightly above the average, and that
of Schiller not at all. The lightest brain
on record weighed eight ounces and be-
longed to an IDIOT boy, and that of an
idiot woman weighed ten ounces. The
average brain of Englishmen is fortv-nine
ounces; that of Frenchmen q little over
forty-fye ounces, that of Dutch. Italians.

Right Treatment Of Horses.

Horses are not c~owardly. They are sill
ply nervous and easily excited. Once
taught that al object will not iniure
them, they care nothing more about it.
They will stand fearlessly the beating of
drums, the putting of the locomotive,
the rafting of cars, or any other sound
naturally terrifying to animals. If the
trainer shouts at them and beats
them at first sight of that which causes
fear they will ever after be unsafe, ex-
cept, perhaps, in tho hands of the same
brutal driver. They may be controlled
when young in any place and under all
circumstances if in their early training
they have been made to rely on the voice.
calmly used, of the driver. Once a trick
is acquired it is never forgotten, and once
a horse has run away he is ever thereafter
unsafe, except under the driving of an
expert, and then he is always unpleas-
ant.
Many persons suppose horses under
stand spoken language. The probability
is they do not. The language of the
horse is more by signs than by voice.
They, however, understand tones and
signs perfectly or can be made so to do.
IL is the tone, therefore, that should be
cultivated in training horses, and, in fact,
all animals, and these tones should al
ways be low. Hence the reins and the
whip should be, used principally as sig
mails; the voice to indicate action or in
action. The latter should whoa, or
'ho," to stop; back" to back IN: a
cluck to indicate going forward; tsget
ON or Ego on to indicate increased
speed, and STEADY" to slow up. In this
the emphasis is always to be on the last
word when more than one is used.
There is, however, no objection to
talking to horses. They like to hear the
sound of the human voice. The first
thing a colt should be taught is to know
his name, and to come promptly at the
call. Give them something they like-a
lump of sugar or a slice of carrot-when
they come. They will soon learn what
the call means and be eager to obey.
Then talk to them while stroking tbe
hair or patting the shoulder. Horses es-
peclally like being slightly scratched un-
der the name.
In training to the saddle the reins are
not to be used to pull the horse about.
n particularly if it be a sharp curb.
The hand is to be raised for galloping
and to be lowered in trotting, and the
bride is to be sweryed against n or the
other side of the neck in turning. With
bit, when the horse is going al ease,
Is there to be more restraint used than
Just enough, 50 the mouth of the horse
may be lightly felt. Especially in the
saddle must the rider understand the
science of equitation. The grip of the
saddle must be BY the thighs. The legs
and heels convey the signs of what the
horse is to do, in connection with the
bride, and the spur d whip should never
be used except to punish a horse or ia b
cite him to some extraordinary exertion,

The New York World Almanac con
tains a statement of the present popula-
ton of the principal cities of the Union,
as estimated in each case by the Mayor or
SOM other officer of the municipal gov
eminent, being guided in many cases by
recent censuses. New York, with 1.4O0.-
900, and Philadelphia, with 1000. 0O0.
hold first and second places undisputcd.
Brooklyn, claiming 10, 900, and Chicago,
zoo, 900, stand next in order. Baltimore
claims fifth place with AGO, 900, St. Louis
next with 45O, 900, and Boston seventh
with 400, 000. In 1880 in these cities the
order was reversed. Cincinnati and San
Francisco each claim 800, 900, the latter
gaining on the former. New Orleans
ranks next with 240,0 900, but Buffalo,
claiming 225, 900, has passed Cleveland
and Pittsburgh, and at its rate of pro-
gress will o o overhaul New Orleans.
Washington, or the District of Columbia,
is estimated at 210, 600. Pittsburg puts
forward a claim of 200, $50, beating Clcve-
land $50. Detroit is estimated at u.s.
600, and stands fifteenth in the scale,
passed Newark, Louisville and
Jersey City since 1880. Other cities fol-
Iow as follows: Milwaukee, 10, 600;
Newark, 100, 900; Minneapolis, 100, 600;
Jersey City, 155, 900; st. Paul, lac, 900;
Louisville, 40, 600; Kansas City, 1875,

Another effort is about to be made to
discover the North Pole. Alexander Mac
Arthur, a gentleman who has made a
special study of arctic explorations, &C
%companied by drug clerk named Young,
has started from Winnipeg, Manitoba, for
Selkirk, with a load of provisions of
about 1,400 pounds, his destination being
the North Pole. For a long time Mr..
Macarthur has been in communication
with the Smithsonian Institution at
Washington and other scientific insti-
tutes in the United States, with view of
making explorations in the Northern
seas, and if possible pushing northward
in the ultimate hope of discovering the
North Pole. Before he left he stated that
he would not probably return for two or
three years, and spoke of going to Bafin's
Bay to look for musk OK. His plan was
to take dog trains from Selkirk, but as
they could not be procured, he has de-
cided to take ponies and start across the
lakes. The object in starting early was
to permit of the horses being returned
before the ice on the lakes breaks up. Ee
took with him a letter of credit for
81, 800 on the Hudson's Bay Company,
York Factory, also a large supply of
trinkets, etc., such as might please the
native eye. From York Factory he ex-
poets to travel by a dog train. He also
took a supply of scientific instruments.
Mr.. Macarthur is convinced that his plan
is the only feasible M to accomplish the
end.
